Article Synopsis
- - Mitochondria respond to infections with signals that can trigger inflammation, but the full understanding of how this works is still being explored.
- - The study reveals that the enzyme caspase-activated DNase (CAD) plays a key role in activating mitochondrial pro-inflammatory responses, aiding the body's defense against viral infections.
- - In experiments, cells and mice lacking CAD showed weakened immune responses to viral infections, indicating that CAD is crucial for linking mitochondrial activity to inflammation and overall immune defense.
